We can only dream but I wouldn’t be surprised if this was added as a way to balance top tier at the moment, SU-34 and F-15E spam is too oppressive at the moment.

Sure, but War Thunder doesn’t care about effectiveness or PoK (very much) - I mean the R-27ER never would’ve dominated if they did care. My list was based off of range over anything else.

Not just the US, pretty much every nation that isn’t Russia needs more SPAA.

Do we think the MML (Multi-Mission Launcher) Could be a viable option? Seeing as its got multiple variants, such as the ones seen carrying SL-AMRAAMs, and the more modern one, having 15 launchers, and a towed FCS radar (the AN/MPQ-64 to be specific).

honestly IDK, it definitively would fit in game but im not sure how much of an improvement it would be over ADATS because right now aim120 is very easy to notch

Depends what’s loaded i would think. I believe it could load either AMRAAMER or 9Xs.
thats true, but I doubt they would add it with AMRAAMER because isnt that a very different missile while they already have a 120C in the files (iirc its a 3 or 5) so they would probably give it SLAMRAAM
I dont really see an issue with adding 9X for ground launch or helis because it will be very limited range but dont think the game is ready for it on jets

You could just get a harrier and go into vtol mode and use that as a spaa ive done it before
You are correct, the seeker should be uncaged with a smokeless motor but gaijin seems to think otherwise, I have made several reports about this, as-is it’s not any kind of upgrade.
I feel like it would be a very good counter to maybe the Pantsir S2 if it’s ever added. While it is true, AMRAAMs are very easy to notch, it can also carry AIM9Xs, Stingers, Hellfire’s, and the TAMIR missile seen in the Iron Dome air defense system. I’d also like to add that any amount of added air suppression is needed, with Britain, Italy, and the US having by far the worst top tier SPAA.
Kinda like how the Stingers are mislabeled, the FIM-92K is supposed to have datalink capability but it isn’t implemented. Either that or it’s a typo and they meant to use the FIM-92J. Honestly I would like to see things like a HAWK launcher with a towed radar. We currently have no Semi-active radar homing (SARH ) or Active radar homing (ARH ) missiles being used for ground based AA. Literally everything is command guidance, Beam-Rider or IR guidance…

No, its just gaijin not modeling US equipment properly, just ask the TOW-2B where it’s second warhead is.

Hopefully with the SLAMRAAM, this could balance out spaa
Indeed, frankly of it’s weapons I’m very interested in how the AIM-9X is handled.
It should be a very capable system overall.
Im interested to see if gaijin will eventually add the later model with the improved systems for the missiles and from what ive read and additional two hardpoints for 9X missiles but i haven’t seen any images with it having the additional mounts. Just the upgraded turret drive and electronic systems.
the one in the teaser got AIM-9 (X I believe)
Spoiler
The 2010 model also has 9X.
This is the 2018 model NASAM HML, the US pulled out of the program in 2010 and left SLAMRAAM Humvee to be finished by Kongsberg
The trailer humvee is recognizable since it lacks the cover on the front for the missiles.
Im just curious if we will see the rest of the SLAMRAAM Humvee family since they are neat
